Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov traveled to San Antonio on Friday night to watch the team play, marking the first time he's seen his team on the road.
Prokhorov wanted to see his new point guard, Deron Williams, who was acquired from the Jazz on Wednesday.
"It was good to see him. It meant a lot," said Williams, who had 14 points and 12 assists in a 106-96 loss to the NBA's best team.
Williams met after the game with Prokhorov and said the two will continue talking in London, where the Nets will play Toronto twice starting March 4.
"He was telling me how excited he was, and he wanted to see me in person," Williams said.
Prokhorov did not speak with reporters.
